Local housing

Homes in Landfall.

Landfall housing runs to manufactured homes on a dense, park-style layout, of varied ages, across the whole of the city, a community of under a tenth of a square mile on the east shore of Tanners Lake beside Interstate 94, on glacial drift lowlands beside Tanners Lake in western Washington County — and that mix shapes what a hvac inspection here needs to find.

Local conditions in Landfall

Landfall does not run a point-of-sale housing ordinance, which makes an independent inspection the only thorough, buyer-side read on the home. Landfall sits in Washington County, in EPA Radon Zone 1, and MDH reports more than two in five Minnesota homes have radon levels that pose a significant health risk. Finished basements concentrate radon, and only a 48-hour test tells you the number. Footings here must reach the 3-1/2-foot depth Minnesota Rules 1303.1600 set for the southern frost zone, and that annual freeze-thaw cycle is what drives the settlement cracks, frost heave and ice-dam wear that Landfall-area homes face.

Questions

Common questions.

Will you run the furnace and AC?
Yes, when conditions allow. We do not run air conditioning in freezing weather, and we note when that limits the test.
When is a furnace too old?
Most furnaces last 15 to 20 years. We report the unit's age, condition and any safety concern, including heat-exchanger cracks.
What is different about inspecting a manufactured home in Landfall?
Construction, mostly. Common trouble spots include the steel frame and support system, the skirting and ventilation under the home, tie-downs, the floor and subfloor, and the roof and seams. These homes can be affected by moisture from below, so soft floors and staining are worth looking for. Exterior lighting, steps and skirting also take a lot of wear.

What does a home inspector look at in a Landfall manufactured home?
Landfall is one of only two Minnesota cities made up mainly of manufactured housing, and homes here run from older units to newer models. The inspection focuses on what matters for that construction: tie-downs and anchoring, skirting and underbelly condition, roof coating or shingles and seams, window and door sealing, and moisture at floors near bathrooms and kitchens. Wiring, furnace and water heater age, and how each unit is added onto with decks and porches are worth a look. Tight spacing also makes drainage a real concern.
